Shorter leukocyte telomere length (LTL), a marker of biological age, is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease.\\n\\nOBJECTIVES: To compare LTL between subjects born preterm and at term and to assess if LTL is associated with other putative cardiovascular risk factors at young adult age.\\n\\nMETHODS: We measured mean LTL in 470 young adults. LTL was measured using a quantitative PCR assay and expressed as T/S ratio. We analyzed the influence of gestational age on LTL and compared LTL between subjects born preterm (n = 186) and at term (n = 284). Additionally, we analyzed the correlation between LTL and potential risk factors of cardiovascular disease.\\n\\nRESULTS: Gestational age was positively associated with LTL (r = 0.11, p = 0.02). Subjects born preterm had shorter LTL (mean (SD) T/S ratio = 3.12 (0.44)) than subjects born at term (mean (SD) T/S ratio = 3.25 (0.46)), p = 0.003). The difference remained significant after adjustment for gender and size at birth (p = 0.001). There was no association of LTL with any one of the putative risk factors analyzed.\\n\\nCONCLUSIONS: Young adults born preterm have shorter LTL than young adults born at term. Although we found no correlation between LTL and risk for CVD at this young adult age, this biological ageing indicator may contribute to CVD and other adult onset diseases at a later age in those born preterm.", "link"=>"http://www.mendeley.com/research/leukocyte-telomere-length-young-adults-born-preterm-support-accelerated-biological-ageing", "reader_count"=>17, "reader_count_by_academic_status"=>{"Professor > Associate Professor"=>1, "Student > Doctoral Student"=>1, "Student > Ph.

They point to the cumulative progression toward cell senescence as being a possible factor in later life effects of preterm birth. However, these results also bring to mind the work of Robin, et al. (2014) where they found that chromosomal looping, which brings telomere ends toward certain genes, might influence gene expression and that when telomeres are shorter, they might not be able to reach these genes to influence their expression (2). This indicates that telomere attrition might play a role in disease processes long before cell senescence becomes a factor. The implication of this is that life stresses, such as preterm birth or perhaps other stresses, which accelerate telomere attrition, might lead to increased risk of the diseases of aging even before cell senescence factors in.\n\nAbout the author:\nwww.CeliaMRoss.com\n\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/celia-ross-25236a45\n(Professional connections through LinkedIn welcomed)\n\n(1)\tSmeets CC, Codd V, Samani NJ, Hokken-Koelega AC.
